“Play That Funky Music,” featured on Extreme’s 1989 debut album, is a high-energy cover of the 1976 Wild Cherry hit, infused with the band’s signature funk-rock flair. Nuno Bettencourt’s dynamic guitar riffs and Gary Cherone’s spirited vocals bring a heavier, edgier edge to the classic groove. The track is playful and infectious, showcasing Extreme’s sense of humor and ability to make any song their own. The mood is fun, lively, and irresistible—perfect for dancing and letting loose.
